you're becoming a man, young laddie!
Im a sweater but i sweat a hell of a lot more now im losing weight, Driclor is your answer, get it from chemists or amazon, stings like a bitch for the first night then the next day your sweat stops coming out of your pits....been a life saver for me
I know how you feel OP. I can't relate that is started when I began lifting but I remeber sitting in class after walking in the dead of winter and having sweat pits. Luckily, I was able to go to the dermatologist and he prescribed me some glycopyrrolate for my hyperhidrosis. I also got some sweatblock off Amazon which is expensive but works well in combo with the meds. Makes my eyes and mouth a bit dry but def worth it. Good luck senpai
What's your favorite exercice ?
>>42169823
Give me the basic gestalt on this exercise
Should I try to keep back straight or does it not matter? Should I overextend?
Weighted chin-ups.
Do I really need to train for 6 months to take creatine? That's what written on the label.
>>42169810
You should wait at least a year before you hop on the creatine, that shit isn't a joke.
Yes, and stop eating meat and eggs until you're 6 months in, they contain dangerous amounts of creatine which your body can't handle until your bones learn to negate the effects of gravity.

That shit always gives me 12% even though I don't even have visible abs
>>42169818
12% isn't a guarantee of abs. There was a dude on Alan Thrall's channel who did hydrostatic weighing, got 10%, and didn't have visible abs. Your abs are probably not very big, and you also might have unfortunately loose skin or bodyfat distribution.
I can't find the original OP.
What routines are you all on? I've just finished one of the Takano cycles and looking for something new for my next cycle starting in 2 weeks (next comp is mid-September)

Noone in /fit/ does oly.
/r/weightlifting may be a better place for you
>>42170015
/owg/ used to be pretty popular for a few years
r/weightlifting is an unadulterated shithole
/owg/ on /fit/ died because everybody either posted 5 foot 1 chinks and analyzed their technique or girls doing snatches. Maybe reddit is full of manlets where that kind of stuff is relevant but most of us here are tall and lanky.
Can anybody give me an estimate on my body fat percentage. I think it's somewhere around 17%.
40% you delusional phagotto
>>42169674
It looks like you swallowed a big metal ring and it got stuck at your waist
>>42169674
17% seems correct mayne
>hate my body usually
>love my body when I have a pump
>feel good enough about it that I have no motivation to get stronger, hardly leave my comfort zone, and think I put in a respectable amount of work when in reality it isn't much at all
How do I stop this cancerous mentality?
I could self loathe my body wholesomely but I don't think that's healthy long term. What's the patrician way of going about it?
>>42169348
you don't ever stop this mentality. the body dysmorphia from lifting has set in. you will NEVER be as big as your pump.

How do I sleep better, /fit/?
I was super tired at 11am, got in bed at 11:15. I just tossed and turned for hours, getting hot under my blanket, pillows feeling weird, etc and it's almost 2:30am now.
This happens most nights and while I still get about 8 hours a night due to my working/lifting schedules, I want to start going to bed/waking up earlier
Pic unrelated
>>42169318
Meant 11pm*
I usually can't fall asleep until 4am or when the sun rises
I sleep under a flat sheet with a fan on. I change my pillow cases twice a week. They give the fresh bedding feel, and it helps me sleep. In the winter I just use a 4.5 tog. I can too hot, but never too cold.
You've got to work out your own body.
my uncle has the same problem, just get some sleeping pills prescribed, they helped him a shit-ton
alternitavely, just wake up earlier and force yourself to go throughout the day, even if you feel like shit, your body will get used to getting up early soon enough
Guys what the fuck is wrong with me?
I was squatting and normally my form is fine. But today I couldn't even squat lmao1pl8 without my lower back starting to get loose. I brace perfectly but even that didn't work. I tried to deload today but clearly I can't even do that so wtf.
Any advice?
I did a lot of mobility work before I hit the gym but I don't know if that caused the loose back.

How does one become slim without becoming skinny fat... Without lifting? Possible with diet alone?
Eat nothing and do nothing
>>42169252
Sounds easy enough
>>42169240
You choices are skinny fat or skelletor. So fucking lift already.
How do I get rid of splotches of darkened skin from sun damage? Pretty much freckles, I hate taking pictures because the camera always seems to bring out the spots of brown on my skin.
so im trying to gain more muscle mass and im on a 4000 calorie diet per day...
how ever prior to that i fought hard going on a hollywood diet of almost 500 calorie per day to lose all my fat.
the question:
> as im trying to gain mass is it normal that i have a belly ?
-should i do cardio ?
-should i alter my diet ?
i dont want to gain all that fat and im scared.
>>42169087
You probably don't need 4000 kCal. 3000 kCal seems more appropriate.
Also, alternate bulking with cutting. Put on, at max, 5-10 lbs before switching back to cutting. So long as you continue lifting weights, your muscle loss should be minimal, and therefore any weight gain you have will be lean for the most part.
>>42169087
500 calorie a day? Good job doing more damage than good, dumbass.
>>42169087
>and im on a 4000 calorie diet per day
>i fought hard going on a hollywood diet of almost 500 calorie per day

Hi /fit/tards,
What should I be looking for in a pre workout supplement?
I find black coffee does the trick... everything else gets to be excessive and makes me feel crazy after I workout/messes with my apettite.
Id also look into low dose white vein kratom, its wonderful.
>>42169029
If youre not a pusy like >>42169090
then get some with DMAA in it, after that everything else is gravy
>>42169142
Honestly I think that's banned in my country, I'll double check though
>>42168924
What's your stats?
>>42168924
this picture makes me sad
This has to be the result of an eating disorder right
